the hidden goddess
If you look at the flacon to "Organza", you discover it: the hidden goddess!
This silhouette is reminiscent of the back view of the ancient goddesses and their female entourage, who adorned temples and their facilities, and still exude their own grace and dignity.
A feminine form that invites contemplation; with the hands almost automatically wanting to follow those curves.
(I often feel this way about special sculptures or even flacons: I most want to touch them, to follow their forms.)
Hubert de Givenchy, actually more inclined to a couture purism (see his models for Audrey Hepburn), seems to have thought of the hidden femininity of his customers when choosing this flacon. Who knows them better than their tailor?
(Well, I admit: mostly still her hairdresser!)
The fact that the closure of this flacon is quite an avant-garde headgear and thus an "eye-catcher", does not detract from this creation.
Has a woman yet more than just an exterior and is it not the task of fashion to highlight their versatile, sometimes dazzling facets?
How much do we miss out on through today's often thoughtless veiling of women?
On the other hand, how much are we spared as a result?
But that's off topic here; as usual, I digress.
"Organza" was called this opulent fragrance creation; so quite a child of the "golden fragrance era"!
It begins already with the Changieren, which simply belongs with Organza: nothing is as it seems at the first moment!
Already the top note turns out radiant: Gardenias in their classic ladies fragrance beauty are accompanied here by fine bergamot aromas, elegant foliage in light green and not to forget Neroli!
Neroli, as always flattering and warming, all sharp-edged (of life) abrading, sets here a particularly beautiful accent.
Once "Ritsch-Ratsch" with the nutmeg over the grater and the first extraordinary spice is added to the elegance.
The proven women's fragrance notes are retained even when visiting the flower garden for the heart note.
Here they are gathered: the proud iris, always accompanied by her sword (women are not only cuddly!), a dreamlike jasmine nuance - pure white and golden-faced radiant - as well as the also evening-active tuberose show the classic flower garden.
Honey-scented honeysuckle flower spikes and "thick-headed" fragrant peonies represent more the inhabitants of the more rustic cottage garden.
All the flower ladies get along splendidly; each seems to enhance the beauty of the others. (They seem to be real team players!)
As before, a surprise shows up: the rather tart walnut gets to add its ethereal oily fragrance as a special feature.
Just like the good pinch of grated nutmeg, this is an interesting spicy addition that gives "Organza" a special touch.
Despite all the "spicy experiments", it is again left to the great, ever-proven classics of the base, to lead this fragrance artwork skillfully and almost pompously to the crowning conclusion.
Vanilla and amber - in creamy white and gold - spray luminous fragrance rockets, which yet spread amazing warmth and are supported by various fragrance underlining woods and the spicy silky shimmering cedar aroma.
Under this radiant blanket of fragrance rounds out the entire scent robe that is "Organza".
A tribute to eternal femininity, presented overtly or covertly, with an astonishing longevity, during which the scent evolves in swirls large and small and luminous spirals.
A subtle, still alluring hint lingers; nothing is bland or "overpowering":
the quiet elegance of the house of Givenchy is also evident here.
"Organza": a fabric that is increasingly rarely processed.
The fragrance creature of the same name lives on, however, and adorns us women whenever we wish or allow it.
Whereby the "I" hidden behind the transparent fabric certainly flashes out a little bit many a time: "There is something inside you waiting to burst open into Light!"

Yes, that's right: I had posted this review before; but then deleted it in anger.
(There is a type of response to which I am very displeased.)
Now I note with pleasure that here at Parfumo a very good memory exists: many thanks!
So then: here's to a new one!
